How it works

This app building competition is unique in that you get to pitch your ideas and form teams onsite before hacking begins. The number of ideas that will move onto the next round is limited so be ready to approach the idea presenter as soon as the advancing ideas are announced. Anybody may participate, regardless of skill level, as long as you meet the eligibility requirements as noted in the Official Rules and FAQ.

1

Ideas Pitching and Team Formation*

Each hackathon kicks off with attendees presenting app ideas they want to build. Attendees vote for which top ideas to proceed on as hackathon projects. Up to 30 ideas with the most votes will go on to the development phase. Teams are formed around each advancing idea and hacking begins.

* Teams of 2 people and up will form around each of the up to 30 advancing ideas. We can't guarantee that you will be able to get on a team. The formation of the team and selection of team members is up to the advancing idea presenters and the teams.

2

Hacking and Git Commit Challenges

The minimum requirement for your app is that it runs in the Salesforce1 Mobile App container found on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Use any Salesforce technology as well as other allowed technologies as specified in section 5 of the Official Rules and FAQ.

We’ll also be doing Git Commit Challenges with great prizes along the way.

3

Live Demo and Judging

Once the coding stops and you have submitted your entry, you will get an opportunity to demo your app live in front of the judges and peers. Your app will be judged based upon four criteria: innovation, business potential, user experience, and usage of Salesforce technologies.
